Lyman/Layman:

With A/P disengaged, FD's do not cause the aircraft to 'do' anything, don't require 'defeating', and should be deselected when unreliable.

Different 'zipper'.

Thank you . I recall the Flight Directors were not turned off after UAS, as they should have been according to UAS drill, AF. (Did this drill predate 447?). So any way, if the flight directors indicated "Low", would the pilots command a climb? Were they working/accurate at the loss of auto?

Do they show the 'BIRD', indicating FlightPath?

If the STALL speed was displayed, does that mean ADR'S are back on line?
